Cutting a long yarn tail (extra long if making a bonnet), weave end through last 16 stitches and pull tightly to close.

If making beanie, start with beginning tail and seam hat to the crown. Knot with ending tail, weave/trim ends.

If making bonnet, start with ending tail and seam until you reach first decrease row. Then, whichever bonnet corner doesn’t have beginning tail weave end tail along bonnet edge to it (so now both tails will be coming out both corners of bonnet). Using crochet hook, chain 56 with the tails to make ties. Fasten off, trim end.
